Virginia Water GU25-Live In Housekeeper AB015

Allie Bell (North Surrey & South London) — Thu, 15 Dec 2011 21:02:35 +0000

A lovely family are looking to employ a live in housekeeper. Your day would start around 7am making breakfast for the family. There is a little 6 year old girl who would also need help getting ready for school. Once the morning rush is out the way, it is then on with the household chores of cleaning and laundry, maybe getting a food shop in or collecting in deliveries. In the afternoon you would sometimes be expected to collect the little girl from school, which is a 3-5 minute drive. Once home, it would then be getting on preparing dinner for the family around 6pm. The parents will sometimes leave the little girl in your care, so doing fun activities, some cooking or interesting games would be great!

The family have a small dog, cat and rabbit to keep you company! Your accommodation is through your own entrance, a double bedroom and an ensuite bathroom. They are ideally looking for a mature housekeeper with some experience. Service car provided so a driver is preferable.

Pay £350 net per week. You will be working 5 and half days a week.

Start March 2012.

If this job is something you would like to consider please email me allie@harmonyathome.co.uk or call 07766202071.

ENTREPRENEURIAL SUPERNANNY LAUNCHES CHILDREN’S ECO-BOUTIQUE

Childcare entrepreneur and founder of Harmony at Home Ltd, Frankie Gray, has celebrated the premium nanny consultancy’s 75 per cent growth over the last 12 months by launching her latest venture – a children’s eco-boutique.

The first of 10 eco-boutiques planned to open throughout the UK over the next two years is situated in Ardingly, West Sussex. It aims to provide a platform for emerging designers and producers throughout the UK to exhibit their eco-friendly products including toys, clothes and arts and crafts.

The boutique will complement Harmony at Home Ltd, the international nanny consultancy that includes a recruitment agency, sleep clinics, pregnancy pampering sessions and a home and garden safety check service.

On the launch of the boutique division, Frankie comments: “Harmony at Home is now globally recognised for its comprehensive approach to childcare and the boutique represents yet another string to the company’s bow. As sustainability becomes an important factor in parents’ purchasing decisions, it is essential that there are enough choices made available to them and the boutique goes some way to address that. We’re excited about the new venture and look forward to rolling out the boutiques across the UK.”

Launched as a home-based nanny consultancy in 2004, Harmony at Home Ltd is now a national nanny franchise comprising 20 branches throughout the UK including Sussex, Surrey, London, Hampshire, Oxford, Cheshire and Lancashire.

Mrs Liz Hunt, Principal at Norland College, adds: “A Norland College graduate, Frankie not only illustrates how commercially astute she is but how dynamic the childcare industry has become. Sustainability now plays a key role in the choices parents make and Frankie has demonstrated her understanding of this in her exciting new venture.”
